Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 This is actually expected behavior, according to
 [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/my-ie8-is-not-
 obsolete?replies=15#post-2192702 Nacin's comment] on support forums
 thread:

  If you're running a browser that is not the latest major version, you
 will get a warning. The same goes for IE8, Firefox 4, Opera 10, Safari 4.
 For IE6 and IE7, we're particularly harsh.
